³¹ Envoys will come from Egypt;^(A)
    Cush^[a](B) will submit herself to God.

³ Let no foreigner^(A) who is bound to the Lord say,
    “The Lord will surely exclude me from his people.”^(B)
And let no eunuch^(C) complain,
    “I am only a dry tree.”

“To the eunuchs^(D) who keep my Sabbaths,
    who choose what pleases me
    and hold fast to my covenant^(E)—
⁵ to them I will give within my temple and its walls^(F)
    a memorial^(G) and a name
    better than sons and daughters;
I will give them an everlasting name^(H)
    that will endure forever.^(I)
6 And foreigners^(J) who bind themselves to the Lord
    to minister^(K) to him,
to love the name^(L) of the Lord,
    and to be his servants,
all who keep the Sabbath^(M) without desecrating it
    and who hold fast to my covenant—
⁷ these I will bring to my holy mountain^(N)
    and give them joy in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices^(O)
    will be accepted on my altar;
for my house will be called
    a house of prayer for all nations.^(P)”^(Q)
8 The Sovereign Lord declares—
    he who gathers the exiles of Israel:
“I will gather^(R) still others to them
    besides those already gathered.”

⁴ “I will record Rahab^[a](A) and Babylon
    among those who acknowledge me—
Philistia^(B) too, and Tyre^(C), along with Cush^[b]—
    and will say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’”^[c](D)
